Electric Mobility.
EV charging stations increase the appeal and the value of real estate, both in the commercial and in the residential segment.
It is now impossible to imagine our day-to-day lives without electric mobility. Ever since the Building Electromobility Infrastructure Act (GEIG) was passed in 2021, German businesses and building owners have been legally required to provide charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. As early as 1 January 2025, any non-residential building with more than twenty parking spots must have at least one charging point. Conversely, properties upgraded accordingly stand to benefit sustainably from an appreciation of the property site.
Eternigy – a company formed by property owners to help other property owners
Eternigy has its origins in the HIH Group. That explains why the company’s highly skilled team is perfectly familiar with the operational and legal challenges involved in the provision of charging infrastructure in buildings.
Its charging solutions provide institutional investors and owners with a modular service that is tailored to their needs and to the property at hand. Eternigy brings tenants exactly the charging infrastructure they need for the carefree charging of their car fleet and of the vehicles of employees or visitors. Eternigy also offers charging solutions inside or outside properties, including residential ones, to property administrations and housing cooperatives.

“From the initial stocktaking, to the technical audit and structural implementation, all the way to the ongoing operation including invoicing – the challenges around e-charging solutions for owners need to be managed competently.”

Best practice: B.central, Berlin
In conjunction with the decarbonisation and smart building strategy, 32 charging stations were installed for building occupants. A renowned car rental agency and another office tenant use the charging points for their electric car fleet. One of the specific challenges of this project was to take the different needs of the tenants into account in the electric load management. The car rental requires a higher charging capacity, whereas a lower charging intensity spread over the day suffices for the vehicles of the office tenants.
